Hackers Break Into Car Sharing App, 8.4 Million Users Affected

Posted on June 16, 2025 by Dissent

Bogdan Popa reports:

Indian company Zoomcar, best known for its car-sharing model that allows customers to rent vehicles from individuals, has recently acknowledged a data breach that exposed the data of 8.4 million users.

The NASDAQ-listed firm revealed the hack attack in an SEC 8-K filing, confirming that a threat actor managed to access its systems and obtain data like customer names, phone numbers, car registration numbers, personal addresses, and emails.

The company says sensitive information like passwords and financial details has not been exposed. </blockquote

Although the incident has not yet shown up on any leak site tracked by DataBreaches, and we cannot find any statement on Zoomcar’s website, a search for “Zoomcar” revealed that it had a data security breach in in 2018 with the data from that breach being leaked on the internet in 2020.
